I really don't like the idea of giving up, but being honest, having known you for so long I don't care at all for how you're being talked about, civvie or mafia. Gamewise it's one thing but personal is just unnecessary.

[MENTION=13661]golden[/MENTION] it's been such a messy game and we've all royally screwed up when lynching people. I've seen a change in splints in the last few days -- she seems more aware and clued in. And the fish slap thing was pulling at straws, imo. No member, good or bad would want to be like "Oh hey, look! See that really obscure fishslap smiley? The one everyone is confused about? That's me! He's pointing the finger at me!" That's just silly 
You've been caught in some lies in the last day or so. That's why I voted for you. I always thought maybe Art had something on you. I don't understand all these lengthy emotional posts though, I think all of this is confusing me. I like to keep things neutral, its less uncomftorable.

Ah thanks Heiots
and since the votes are split between Golden and Artfirst, they probably aren't on the same side, like Jacobi wondered about before.
Yeah, I didn't really believe that. So many civies have been killed off so stupidly that it makes you see conspiracies everywhere.
I'm not sure. Both artfirst and golden seem pretty guilty And they're both so sure the other is mafia. The biggest red flag is golden's reason for voting for drummergirl. Either it was a mafia hit or it was a really bad move which caused the loss of another good guy. Golden's been playing this game for a while. I would think he'd know better than to make such a rookie play.
Also if we believe that artfirst is mafia, then we have to also believe that splints is aswell. And honestly something in my gut is telling me otherwise. Though it's been wrong more than once in this game.
*ponders* I don't know what to think, really. I agree that I wouldn't expect a baddie to be as vocal as you have, but then again since you're so close to being lynched and have been all game, it wouldn't make sense to stay silent either. If I was mafia and eyes were on me, I'd want to explain myself too. And it conveniently takes the spotlight off the other possible baddies.
Maybe you are right that Artfirst is talking on behalf of flints. I don't want to believe Art is guilty because I like him, he seems sincere to me. But Oliviapope was right, some unnecessary things have been said about you.. it's only a game, right? But Artfirst was making it personal, like an attack on you, and if he's mafia and felt like you were lying about his teammate flints, then that would make sense in a way. I know for me it's easier to defend someone else than just myself. But I don't really have any other evidence against Artfirst, so it's really hard to believe he's guilty just for that.
Ugh I don't want to be responsible for another civilian death, or bringing the game to an end if it comes to that. The main thing I have against you right now is the hug/nod smilie after I asked if drummergirl was silencing you, and the fact that you voted drummergirl knowing she was civilian. You say it was a tactical mistake and you only did it to find if flints was guilty, but I just don't buy it, we're so low on civilians as it is, if you were civvie you must have realized how bad another civilian death would be for us.
I'm giving it another 1/2 hr or so before I vote, gonna be busy later on so won't have time.

It was a rookie play. In my defence, I'm used to playing in games that start off at 30 people, I'm used to being able to pull a play like that early on in the game and it's not having such a massive effect. I didn't think it through, and see what a massive effect it could have. It snowballed very easily, in games I'm used to no-one is going to follow the guy posting in smilies. I really wanted to use a picture of Katniss, of Olivia Pope etc but I couldn't... the day just didn't pan out at all like it seemed in my head.
But here is one more think TB...
Don't be worried about 'causing one more civilian death'. If I die today, I can see I've brought it on myself.
Your number one priority should be to win. If you are civ, then I know you lose my voting me out. I don't know you keep our civilian game alive by voting Art out, but I feel pretty confident in it.
I genuinely believe his emotional outbursts were because he felt defensive of what I was saying about his teammate, which is why I don't understand why Jacobi's gut is saying they aren't linked...
(I also want Art to know, like, he apologised in the thread and he understood he crossed the line, and from my perspective apology accepted. So lets not make him feel too terrible about it. Sometimes these things can happen to us and I'm sure Art didn't mean it to get personal. It doesn't mean I think he is civilian, though.)

You were clearly targeting people with your smiley posts though. They read so very clearly and you got your points accross perfectly. What would have been the point of adding almost all of the players into the posts? Would there have even been a purpose? It sounds like excuses to me. It would have just got too confusing and made no sense. Also, if you had wanted to, it would have been relatively easy. I'm pretty sure an icon of a cat and a pope or some religious figure would have got the message accross.
I really hope Im not wrong about you, but you do seem to just be grasping at straws.

Golden has played loads of games with less then 30 people. In fact the forum he started on played with about 15-20.
He is trying to play off the fact that you guys don't know him well.
Don't fall for it! He's a lawyer he knows how to convince with his words!

I just can't do it, I can't vote Artfirst. he seems genuine to me and has from the beginning, same as Katniss. Voting Golden. I'm really sorry golden, if you are innocent.

It is interesting that the third person to vote for me is back to reinforce fingersplints ideas.
Katniss, if it's grasping at straws, why was splints able to so easily remember my smilie from years ago? And why did you say 'see that really obscure smily' - if any was obscure, surely my kiwi would be the most obscure of the lot...??
The only person whose word there is for the idea it was 'obscure' is fingersplints, who naturally wants you all to think it's obscure... except for the fact that we had this, like, chatbox... where she used that smilie ten times every day... the smilies were not obscure on RM. They represented us, we all had one or two or (in the case of heiots) three, and they were an inherent part of our identities. They were a very good way of representing who each other was in cases like being cursed by smilies. Is it possible splints and I have different views about whether that smilie represents her? Sure. But I'm 100% certain she knew I meant it to represent her. And I'm certain it came up in the baddie chat too... hence why the only person to interpret the fishslap (incorrectly) was Art.
If my smilie posts were so easy to interpret, I wonder why people could understand what I meant when I had a mafia next to Art, a mafia next to DG, but not understand I might mean a person when I had a mafia symbol next to a fishslap... I don't think they were that easy to understand. I do, however, wish I had the pope idea
thats fantastic.Anyway, TB, DP, jacobi - I think you should take note of the fact katniss is essentially pushing fingersplints word as gospel truth, I'm just hoping some people will really see this is whats happening...
I have no teammates to push my word as gospel truth, or push my perspective on events... I'm just working hard at trying to convince you myself.
So me coming in all of a sudden might leave me uninformed compared to others, but from what I've read I'd rather vote Golden.
Well jacobi, DP, it's up to you.
If you both vote with me, then it comes down to which side Susan is on. At least that gives me a 50/50 chance. If, as I suspect, the ones who voted for me are all a team, it might give me more than a 50/50 chance.

I don't know. It's just in the way he argued. First of all golden was the one to really initiate the conflict. His accusation seemed to come out of nowhere and splints seemed genuinely insulted by it. I've also gone through a lot of the thread and I can't see any sign of splints working with artfirst.
I do believe that artfirst is very suspicious and if golden wasn't in this game, he would definitely get my vote. Now it could all just be coincidence, it could be that golden's just been screwed by bad luck and timing from the start. One of my biggest weaknesses is looking for the more unlikely answer, ignoring the obvious in favour for the convoluted. But even for me, there's a point where I can't ignore the obvious and the obvious is that golden is mafia.
Really hope my gut is right here. Vote Golden
